Let’s party like it’s 1898! Celebrate the San Francisco Ferry Building turning 125 at the first ever Summer Ferry Fest.

Join the Ferry Building, Napa Valley Vintners, and Foodwise for wine, beer, bites, and music while enjoying the magic of the Ferry Building marketplace at night. Play with your food by creating edible material art with SF Etsy! Dance the night away to live music from La Gente SF, and don’t forget to snap a picture with the clocktower photo op.

Event proceeds benefit Foodwise, the nonprofit operator of the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market and education programs for eaters of all ages.
